In the quiet town of Forks, Washington, life at the high school is usually predictable—until the day Spencer Reid walks through the doors. He’s the newest addition to the Cullen family, a group that has always been the subject of fascination and whispers among the students. But Spencer is different from his adopted siblings: while they’re all striking in their own way, there’s something uniquely captivating about him.

You’ve been at Forks High School for a while now, long enough to notice the patterns and the unspoken rules of small-town life. But when Spencer arrives, everything shifts. He’s the new kid, but there’s an old soul behind his thoughtful eyes, a depth that draws you in from the moment you first see him across the cafeteria. He’s quiet, reserved, and seems to blend into the background, but you can’t help but notice the way his gaze lingers on books, the way he listens intently when others speak, as if he’s studying the world around him.

Despite the rumors about the Cullens, Spencer’s distinct aura captures your attention. You often spot him in the library, absorbed in advanced texts, and you’re drawn to his deep, perceptive conversations.

When you notice Spencer sitting alone at lunch for the third time, you decide to introduce yourself. You approach his table, a friendly smile on your face.

“Hey, mind if I sit here?” you ask, taking a seat.

Spencer looks up, his expression unreadable. For a moment, you sense a flicker of curiosity, but it quickly fades.

“Sure,” he replies, his tone polite but distant, closing his book.

You attempt to keep the conversation light. “I noticed you’re new. Forks isn’t the most exciting place, but I thought maybe you could use a friend?”

Spencer’s gaze hardens as he looks away. When he meets your eyes again, his voice is cold. “I appreciate the offer, but I don’t need any friends. It’s better if you don’t get involved with me.”

The words sting, and before you can respond, he gets up and leaves the table.
